Mario Kart 7 - Perfect 3-Stars Rank Tip Guide (Nintendo 3DS)

[@ilnom7320]

My factors when i got 3 star was: Get first place in every lap Get 10 coins Get first place

[@jden_224]

Zy3rra You don't need 10 coins. I've succeeded without.

[@jden_224]

Zy3rra You also don't need to be in first place in every lap. But I think it's a problem when you lag too far behind for too long in the race, that's when even winning the race seemed to be irrelevant.

[@thomasc9248]

Get? You mean you got and thought it contributed to it. But that is bullshit. Many people have already tested this. Btw Your first and last point is the same only more included.

[@UltraNerdyGamer]

The worst part about com racers in 150cc/mirror is that they use their calculator brains to nail with green shells using bullshit trickshots that no person could land without extreme luck.

[@HunterX57]

A lot of the trick shots I land are actually just terribly aimed close misses that coincidentally happen close to a turn and the computers seem to drift right into them. I do always get a terrible feeling when the com racer 1 place behind me picks up a triple green shell though.

[@j.brown05]

@@jopoxfred You don't need 3 Stars in the 150cc Cups to unlock Mirror Mode, though. So you just get Gold in the 150cc Cups (any Stars), to unlock the Mirror Mode, then just work the Mirror Cups for 3 Stars, before working the 150cc Cups for 3 Stars. I think that was the suggestion. I would still go after 3 Stars in 150cc first though, since I'm used to the direction anyway. Why get used to mirror tracks, then get used to the original tracks all over again afterward?

Every time I think of blue shells, I think of the saying "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer."

[@nickwaterson3990]

4:49 Correction: You can still dodge the blue shell even if it's already launched. You just have to do so before the siren goes off. That indicates that you're it's target; and that it's too late to drop out. Luckily as mentioned, you're gonna be fairly close to other players when playing 150cc and Mirror mode. So it's easy to drop out or catch the other players in the explosion. Just make sure to drop out of first either before the siren goes off, or once you see it in a player's inventory on the touch screen.

You probably don't lead the pack very often then. Tell me how much stars you got on all cups in 150cc. The average.

[@MrIceSlipper]

One more blue shell tip, u can avoid it with a mushroom. Right when it finishes swirling, use it. Although it has to be perfectly timed, it's more likely for you to have then a star. Hope this helps :)

[@hibiku757]

NO!!!!! There is a way to dodge the blue she'll without a star! With precise timing, you can dodge a blue she'll by using a mushroom as soon as in hits you. It is very precise timing, but very possible and super useful.

AreoStar True, but at least the red shell doesn’t stop you completely if you’re close enough to fall over the line. Without a mushroom, a blue shell is basically a guaranteed game over.

[@jden_224]

AreoStar What? How the hell does a red block a blue?? Same with bananas, etc. In order to block a blue with a shroom, you must use it in the last few frames of the blue shell crashing down on you

It is better to dont drag an shell or banana behind you all the time. cause if you do it your finger will be tired of holding the L button all the time to my tip is: if you see or hear a red shell you should hold L when it gets launched. so if you have a shell or banana dont ditch it but when you hear the sound of a shell drag it behind you.

[@cm3635]

for mirror mode just focus on the tracks from 50cc to mirror mode not remembering them

[@jerq887]

the way to get 3 star rating: "become 1st in each track of the cup" WHY?! WHY couldn't it be as simple as that?! doing that alone is hard enough as it is! but NO! you have to: 1# avoid falling off track 2# get 10 coins in order to go fast enough (which is basically impossible, since you'll get hit by the blue shell or thunder anyway!!) 3# avoid hitting walls 4# avoid getting hit by too many objects the 150cc and mirror classes are driving me INSANE!!

[@gilbert64]

tanuki tails can also defend you from shells I use them normally to defend myself to red shells

[@kjm7plays941]

Another way to avoid a blue shell is to fall off the track at the exact moment the blue shell would hit. You would only lose 3 coins, and although your items go away, you can't get hit while lakitu is carrying you.

[@JessicaElizaTaylor]

or if you have a mushroom use it right after the blue shell spins over your head but you must time it right

Actually, it is possible to dodge a blue shell with a well-timed mushroom or bomb. I've dodged at least 5 blue shells with a mushroom, but never a bomb.

[@jordonjohnson3329]

not trying to boost or put anyone down but I can hold first place and drift like a pro while looking at the bottom screen with ease

[@leafcooper7140]

there is a way to dodge blue shells by using a mushroom just as it attacks you. There are plenty of videos on youtube with this shown and I have pulled it of myself a couple of times. You can use the same technique in mariokart wii, as well as ds and double dash, but I think it is done differently in those two

[@JamieTwells]

Not reliable though, since you're not likely to have a mushroom in first place as it won't defend against red/green shells and it's not even a guaranteed way to avoid the hit, since the timing must be so precise.

[@leafcooper7140]

Jamie Twells It's better than nothing though, and usually worth hanging onto a mushroom if playing against CPU's or in a low skill room

[@JamieTwells]

james cooper Maybe, but I disagree, I think green shells/ bananas are better than mushrooms in first place.

[@BiasedPopcorn]

In Double dash and DS you have to stop drifting at the same time the blue shell attacks you In Wii use a mushroom when the blue shell stops spinning. In 7 and 8(Deluxe) Use the mushroom at the exact time the blue shell chases down on you or in 8(Deluxe) (which is obvious) Use the super horn when it's about to blast you.

[@theonewiththeeyeoftruth884]

3:35 "Unfortunately, there is no way to dodge a Blue Shell once it has you in its sights." Unless you have a Mushroom. You can dodge it at the last moment if you're boosting from a Mushroom. The other boosts (like the drift boost or the track boost) may not work, but the Mushroom boost definitely does. The timing is a bit tight, but you can dodge the Blue Shell.

Thankfully, it's considerably easier to triple-star everything in 7 than in Mario Kart Wii. I've never finished a GP with 40 points that didn't give me a triple-star, even if I trailed most of a race, whereas I've gotten as low as an A in MKW with a full 60 points.

I love the second screen,the switch should have one

[@Nocturne61]

Sorry, it doesn't.

[@BuletproofKevin]

What is the best kart/character and wheel combo?

[@TruExtentChannel]

Two more things: Firstly, if you get the timing just right you can avoid a blue shell with a mushroom. You must hit the item just before the shell hits and you can speed out of harms way. Granted, i've only been able to do this once on Rainbow Road and one other time on MKWii. Super tricky but possible. (Not sure if it will work in flying sections.) Secondly, LOCAL MULTIPLAYER. Use this with at least one friend (more is better). In local multiplayer, playing Grand Prix mode counts toward your ranking records. (No Grand Prix option exists for online.) When playing, have one person take first place every time to have them earn the three star ranking. The second person plays as a defender and counters any item hits from the CPUs as well as attack any CPUs who get ahead or catch up to the first player. When a blue shell appears, the second player must take 1st in order to take the shell's hit and keep the first player going.

[@mae_lia]

[@blaze4265]

Every time I play Mirror mode I know what to expect and the opponents are my biggest concern with that difficulty.

[@jasminejohnston6393]

3:32 Actually, there are some tips you left out. First, I looked at the instruction booklet, and the actual name for "Blue Shell" is "Spiny Shell" Anyway, here's the actual tips: In 150cc, the AI will not launch the Spiny Shell if you're not in first place Even if you're in 5th place, the Spiny Shell will still hit you and flip you, because in Mario Kart 7 its flight path travels along the ground.

[@ZariWari]

I think falling off the track does affect your rank. In the 150cc special cup, I got first place in every race, but I only got 2 stars. I fell a lot on Rosalina's Ice World and Rainbow Road.

[@jasminejohnston6393]

150cc is insane in this game. The AI is so smart that they're immune to Spiny Shells. Also, the special cup is frustrating. It took me forever to unlock Metal Mario. It's the bottomless pit in Rosalina's Ice World that does it. It's easy to mistake for a water section :(

[@daan6693]

The problem is that I never get a star + the blue shell always comes to me in the last meters.

[@hrimfaxi989]

A tip for Blue Shells (shaving a bit of time after Blue Shell impact): In courses that you may fall and get picked up by Lakitu, if a Blue Shell is locked on to you and you have no Mushroom or Star, make an "Intentional Fall" as soon as the Blue Shell arrives. You'll get picked up by Lakitu and if you time it just right, you'll get a small boost and return to your top speed immediately.

[@TaylorMK7]

You can dodge blue shells with mushrooms I do it time to time during online races. I would smuggle triple mushrooms or a queen mushroom then when a blue shell is flying towards the ground that's when I use the mushrooms.

[@omarshaikh5455]

I'd rather stick with my one-star ranking thanks, It's a pain to get 3 stars and when there is nothing special at the end except a 3-star ranking. I like Mario Kart because of the VEHICLES, and I am on my way to 20000 coins because I am one kart frame short.
